I'm trying to model my participation in TC39 based on what I've been reading about maintainers of open-source projects, but having a hard time. When people file a bug, asking the reporter to make a PR can be sort of painful! But I am really happy with many recent contributions.

Increasing the pool of contributors who have skills and time to work on that kind of stuff unburdens the existing maintainers.
-
And people love roles like "keeping the spec up and up to date". They feel like they're contributing to something important, even though they aren't (yet) equipped to write spec text.
-
The same holds true with things like helping with explainers, writing Babel plugins, writing spec tests, etc. These are all things that a much wider group of people can do, and things that people are enthusiastic about doing.

Done for now

Your contributions are good as usual.
